<P>PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a network management device which helps to reduce a decline in network performance when an erroneous wire connection occurs, and a network management method. <P>SOLUTION: An initial address assignment unit 11 assigns prescribed addresses to a plurality of nodes 21 connected to each of first stage switches 22. A connection state acquisition unit 12 acquires their respective connection states from each of first stage switches 22, each of second stage switches 23, and each of third stage switches 24. An erroneous connection detection unit 13 compares the connection states acquired by the connection state acquisition unit 12 with prescribed connection states stored beforehand to detect an erroneous connection. When an erroneous connection is detected by the erroneous connection detection unit 13, an address change unit 14 changes the address of the node 21 assigned thereto by the initial address assignment unit 11 so as to meet a first prescribed condition, on the basis of the connection states. <P>COPYRIGHT: (C)2013,JPO&INPIT |
